NEET Chemistry (general) Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12
Assertion (A): In the thermal decomposition of N2O5, the rate constant increases with an increase in temperature.
Reason (R): For every 10°C rise in temperature, the rate constant of a reaction nearly doubles.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The NCERT text states that the rate constant nearly doubles with a 10°C increase in temperature, which directly explains why the rate constant increases with temperature for the decomposition of N2O5.
